Exploring similar artists

I've posted on the Lights forum under media (http://board.iamlights.com/index.php?/topic/7998-music-video-for-river-acoustic/) about what bands her avid listeners would tune into it's difficult to determine though because Lights' genre is normally electronic - synth pop however, we're using an acoustic version of her song River that was released on a one-off acoustic ep. So whilst most people are saying that bands like Owl City and Postal Service are what they would listen to, these bands sound nothing like this acoustic ep but rather, like her actual album which is all electronic.


The research I've carried out on Last Fm however, has allowed me to determine what artists people are listening too that have added River (Acoustic) to their libraries. It seems that The Maine and
The Ready Set are bands that others are listening to which are related to River.


Her album cover for the acoustic ep is completely basic possibly reflecting the simplicity of this ep compared to her other album which would require much more detail with all the different instruments etc.
